assess the sufficiency of any safeguards
in place to control these risks;
• Design and implement reasonable
safeguards to control the risks identified
through risk assessment, and regularly
test or monitor the effectiveness of the
safeguards’ key controls, systems, and
procedures;
• Develop and use reasonable steps to
select and retain service providers
capable of appropriately safeguarding
personal information they receive from
Compete or obtain on behalf of
Compete, and require service providers
by contract to implement and maintain
appropriate safeguards; and
• Evaluate and adjust its information
security programs in light of the results
of testing and monitoring, any material
changes to operations or business
arrangements, or any other
circumstances that it knows or has
reason to know may have a material
impact on its information security
program.
Part VI of the proposed order requires
Compete to obtain within 180 days after
service of the order, and biennially
thereafter for 20 years, an assessment
and report from a qualified, objective,
independent third-party professional,
certifying, among other things, that: (1)
It has in place a security program that
provides protections that meet or exceed
the protections required by the
proposed order; and (2) its security
program is operating with sufficient
effectiveness to provide reasonable
assurance that the security,
confidentiality, and integrity of personal
information is protected and has so
operated throughout the reporting
period.
Part VII requires Compete to destroy
all consumer data collected by a Data
Collection Agent before February 2010.
Part VIII requires Compete to retain
documents relating to its compliance
with the order. Part IX requires that it
deliver copies of the order to persons
with responsibilities relating to the
subject matter of the order. Parts X, XI,
and XII of the proposed order are further
reporting and compliance provisions.
Part X ensures notification to the FTC of
changes in corporate status. Part XI
mandates that Compete submit a
compliance report to the FTC within 60
days, and periodically thereafter as
requested. Part XII provides that the
order will terminate after 20 years, with
certain exceptions.
The purpose of this analysis is to
facilitate public comment on the
proposed order. It is not intended to
constitute an official interpretation of
the proposed complaint or order or to
modify the proposed order’s terms in
any way.

Proposed Project
Improving the Health and Safety of
the Diverse Workforce—New—National
Institute for Occupational Safety and
Health (NIOSH), Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
Stress is one of the major causes of
diminished health, safety, and
productivity on the job (Jordan et al,
2003; Brunner, 2000). Increasing
medical care utilization costs, job
dissatisfaction, poor job performance,
and employee turnover are some of the
documented health, economic,
psychological, and behavioral
consequences of stress (Levi, 1996).
Because of their general concentration
in high-hazard and/or lower-status
occupations, some racial and ethnic
minority workers may be over-exposed
to workplace factors (e.g., high workload
and low job control) which have
traditionally linked to a variety of stressrelated health and safety problems. In
addition, racial and ethnic minorities
appear to be significantly more likely
than non-minorities to encounter
discrimination and other race-related
stressors in the workplace (e.g., Krieger
et al, 2006; Roberts et al, 2004).
Given a potentially greater stress
burden, racial and ethnic minority
workers may be at heightened risk for
the development of health and safety
problems associated with stress. On the

29OCN1
Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 209 / Monday, October 29, 2012 / Notices
other hand, occupational stress research
experts suggest that certain workplace
and other factors (e.g., co-worker and
supervisory support, anti-discrimination
policies and practices, etc.) may help
reduce stress among employees,
including racial and ethnic minorities.
The goals of this project are to
evaluate: (1) The degree of exposure of
minority and non-minority workers to
various workplace and job stressors (2)
the impact of these stressors on health
and safety outcomes and (3) the
organizational (e.g., organizational
characteristics, policies and practices)
and other factors that protect minority
and other workers from stress and
associated problems in health and
safety. The data collection will
ultimately help CDC/NIOSH focus
intervention and prevention efforts that
are designed to benefit the health and
safety of the diverse U.S. workforce.
The study entails collecting
standardized information from working
adults via a telephone interview.
Respondents will be asked about: (1)
Their exposure to workplace and job
stressors, including those related to race
and ethnicity (2) their health and safety
status and (3) organizational
characteristics, policies and practices

that may or may not buffer them from
the adverse effects of work-related
stressors. Respondents will be a random
sample of 2,300 Blacks/African
Americans, White/European Americans,
Hispanic/Latino Americans, American
Indian/Alaska Natives, and Asian
Americans. All telephone interview
respondents will be between the ages of
18 and 65, English-speaking, either
currently employed or unemployed for
no more than 3 years, and living within
the Chicago Metropolitan area. There
are no costs to respondents other than
their time. The total estimated annual
burden hours are 1,150.

Hepatitis Testing and Linkage to Care
Monitoring & Evaluation System—NewNational Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral
Hepatitis, STD and TB Prevention
(NCHHSTP), Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The National Center for HIV/AIDS,
Viral Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention
(NCHHSTP), Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention is requesting a threeyear OMB approval for establishing a
Hepatitis Testing and Linkage to Care
(HEPTLC) Monitoring and Evaluation
System to collect standardized, nonidentifying, client-level and test-level
hepatitis testing information from
funded testing sites at multiple settings.
Grantees will be required to use this
web-based HEPTLC software
application to collect and report testing
and linkage to care activities.
The HEPTLC data collection and
reporting system will enable CDC to
receive standardized, non-identifying
information from funded grantees,
including: (1) Information about test
sites that provide HEPTLC services and
laboratories that provide lab testing; (2)
PO 00000
Frm 00023

Information about testing participants,
including demographics, risk
characteristics, vaccination history, etc.
(3) Information related to diagnostic test
results; and (4)Information about posttest follow-ups, including notification of
test result, post-test-counseling, linkage
to care and preventive services, and case
report to surveillance authorities. CDC
will use HEPTLC data for the following
purposes: (1) Monitor the
implementation activities of the
HEPTLC initiative, as well as evaluate
the progress and performance made by
the grantees. Findings will further
inform strategic planning and program
improvement; (2) Inform
recommendations and strategies of
increasing early identification of
infected persons and linkage to care,
based on participant characteristics and
linkage to care among those persons
who are infected; (3) Identify best
practices and gaps in implementing
HEPTLC in various testing settings, and
guide CDC in providing technical
assistance to the grantees; (4) Produce
standardized and specialized reports
that will inform grantees, CDC Project
Officers, HHS, Congress and other
stakeholders of the process, outcome
and accountability measures; (5)Assess
public health prevention funds and
resources allocations with respect to
prioritized risk populations; (6)
Advocate the needs for priority setting
and budget allocation for hepatitis
prevention.
Funded sites will use HEPTLC data
for the following purposes: (1)
Understand targeted populations
(demographics, risk behaviors,
vaccination histories, etc) and assess the
